Thank you, I know nothing about your country except that the people I have met from there are Warm & Friendly & Beautiful people.
I will do some homework on the places you mentioned, I would like to know about the cost of living, the cost of housing Rent & buy, food, climate Etc.

Rick.

Cost of living is cheap..like food...people are nice..very sure..there are some isolated place that is dangerous..but where in the world with out voilence? So its up to you to decide.you can visit Philippines any time.now we are changing,in government.That is the great task of our President..fighting the corruption..even it is so hard..he wants to change the mindset of the people.
Im here in Brazil..I ve been in Singapore ..In Dubai..In Aberdeen..but for me..But Philippines is still the best.

Feel free to start a new topic on the Philippines Forum please

Best of luck to you !

Thank you

There aren't all that many coastal towns and the ones there are, are not all that big. The cost of living is cheap, and the incomes are very low. The coastal towns are very,very seasonal. You are more likely to find employment in Phnom Penh, than Koh Kong, Sihanoukville, Kampot or Kep.
